Just like Ferris Bueller did, they’re dancing in the streets in Dallas. Lee Diekemper is here to tell you why.

Dallas 7, Chicago 4: In his first game with the Stars, Brad Richards racked up five assists. While expecting five assists in a game is a bit much, raise your hand if you didn’t expect Richards to shine with the Stars.

Boston 5, Pittsburgh 1: Oh, no! After the Pens gave up a boatload for Marian Hossa, he suffers a sprained MCL to his right knee in his first game. Preliminary reports say he’s out a week. Goalie Ty Conklin was yanked after allowing three goals in 13 shots in the first 21 minutes of the game.

New York Rangers 4, Carolina 2: The Rangers got a key win to stay above water in the playoff race. Brandon Dubinsky and Sean Avery netted first period goals. Does Elisha Cuthbert still care? The officiating was “abysmal.”

Philadelphia 3, Ottawa 1: Flyers fans are giddy. Mike Knuble’s two third period goals give Philly a win streak. Yeah, just two wins in a row, but it beats losing 10 in a row. Jesse Boulerice returned.
